July 26, 20214 yr Possibly yes. To be able to sit in my favorite and very comfortable lazy-boy chair coupled with a big screen TV and maybe a tall and cool one ... well this sounds pretty tempting to me.

July 26, 20214 yr I've been simming since MS CFS. I got into the civilian sims to learn to fly. I am not a very good pilot, haven't learned to do IFR I hop in and fly. No matter how comfortable the chair, I can't sit for more than one hour at a time so my flights are short VFR. I like my peripherals and my addons, however my wife and I travel between a winter and a summer home almost evenly split. Right now I carry y computer and monitor, hotas, Saitek panels etc. back and forth. I am seriously thinking of an Xbox X so that I maybe have one system in each place. the Xbox would also be available for the grandkids and other games. I see this as a viable solution so I will watch the roll out on Tuesday with great interest. I will not need to make a decision until next May when I go to the summer home. I think this will be plenty of time to decide yea or nay. Get used to disappointment - The Dread Pirate Roberts

July 26, 20214 yr The raw thruput of my PC exceeds XBox Series X, and my sense is the optimizations coming tomorrow will bear this out. So no, no Xbox Series X for me.
